Hi there. I'm Rachel, known as Chaobunny on the internetz. College student, CS and math major, e.g. huge nerd. I'm probably the biggest Avatar fan you will ever meet. I'm also into fantasy and anime. I have socially progressive and fiscally moderate political views, and I am a proud Zionist.. I'm also a devoted vegetarian and animal lover, so I'll be reblogging tons of cute animal pictures (especially bunnies, I love bunnies!). ^_^

THIS IS A BRILLIANT AMV!!!

And here is my other AMV entry that didn’t make it in. Enjoy! =)

Avatar TLA - We Might Fall

“Sometimes life is like this dark tunnel, you can’t always see the light at the end of the tunnel. But if you just keep moving, you will come to a better place.” - Iroh, 2x20

For anyone who wants some feels.

But seriously this is beautiful.

Anyone want to preview/critique an AMV I’m working on for AB?
So I just saw on the forums that Anime Boston is willing to allow an Iron Man masquerade skit since there was an Iron Man anime adaptation

I’m not even going to pretend…I’m extremely bitter about this. I have no grudge towards Iron Man because it’s awesome. But the point is they will allow Iron Man but not Avatar…seriously? Iron Man still originated in the U.S. but it’s suddenly okay now that they made an anime of it, while Avatar, which originated in the U.S. but has clear anime influence is somehow not authentic enough for them? What kind of messed up logic is that?

Ugh, YouTube gave my account another strike from that Madoka AMV I uploaded last year

Figures. Well no one watched that one anyway so it’s not a huge deal I guess, but I still think that AMVs should be considered “fair use” in terms of the law. Oh well.

What really irritates me is that my account is not “in good standing” and so I can’t upload private videos anymore which is annoying for wanting to show anyone my works in progress.

Opinion time: What is more important in an AMV? Matching the lyrics better or telling the story in chronological order? I know both are important but in the case where events need to be placed out of order to better match the lyrics—good or bad? Just curious what people think.

 

I’m debating whether or not to post the Avatar AMV I just finished on YouTube now, or to wait until Connecticon since I’m probably going to enter it in the FMV contest there. Hmm…..

Just gonna leave this here and give you feels.

Don’t mind me…I’m not crying GO AWAY

PS: This remix is badass

This is beautiful! <3

The hardest part of AMVs by far is telling a story in such a condensed amount of time

I have all these clips I want to use but I can’t possibly use them all.

Like, I’m trying to fit the essentials of DoBS into like 6 seconds of music. This isn’t happening agjkfda;gdf

Which actually doesn’t seem fair because I gave Return To Omashu 5 seconds which seems like far too much. But it fit with the music.

This is the reason these videos take me so long. I can’t decide what goes where and I end up redoing stuff a million times.

Is anyone interested in previewing an AMV that I’m working on? I could use some feedback.

If there is anyone who would be willing to provide detailed feedback I would really appreciate it. Reply to this or send me a message and I will send you the download link. =) It’s an Avatar video if that makes any difference to people.

The only condition is you have to promise not to upload the file anywhere else, and I’m putting a small watermark on the video just in case. If you find it too distracting and I trust you enough I will show you a version without it, but that is only if I know you personally.

This is probably my favorite madoka AMV (which says a lot since im not a huge fan of PMMM). Very nicely edited, plus poets of the fall. Please watch it if you get the chance!

Last preview for a while…and it’s an Avatar one. I could probably go digging back further in my files for other WIPs I never finished but there are too many and it’s making me kind of depressed. While I probably won’t finish this one, I did find another Avatar one that I might finish.

Another WIP. I may not ever finish this one, though.
